Convert mysql_stat to mysqli_stat help

[Falcon Capt]

I need to convert the following code snippets from MySQL to work with MySQLi

if ($_REQUEST['show'] == 'mysqlstats' || empty($_REQUEST['show'])) {
	print_form_header('', '');
	print_table_header('MySQL Stats &nbsp;<span class="normal">mysql_stat()</span>');
	print_description_row(si_mysqlstats());
	print_table_footer();
	}

function si_mysqlstats() {
	$s = '';
	$status = explode('  ', mysql_stat());
	while ( list($k, $v) = each($status) ) {
		$s .= $v . '<br />';
	}
	return $s;
}

Thanks for any help provided!

Just change mysql_start to mysqli_start, keep in mind that the procedural style of MySQLi requires the connection link as a first argument. Refer to http://php.net/manual/en/mysqli.stat.php

I tried all the variations I could think of still no joy, anyone care to convert the above to working MySQLi code that I can more or less cut & paste into a php file that will work?

OK, I got it to work (sort of) using the following code:

if ($_REQUEST['show'] == 'mysqlistats' || empty($_REQUEST['show'])) {
	print_form_header('', '');
	print_table_header('MySQLi Stats &nbsp;<span class="normal">mysqli_stat()</span>');
	print_description_row(si_mysqlistats());
	print_table_footer();
	}

function si_mysqlistats() {
$link = mysqli_connect("localhost", "dbusername", "dbpassword", "dbname");

printf(mysqli_stat($link));

mysqli_close($link);
	
	return $s;
}

But it doesn't display correctly, see attached image, it is printing above the box instead of in the box.


Also, I would like the display to be:

Instead of the current:

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
